The aim of this study was to determine the anticholesterol activity stem extract Uncaria cordata (Lour.) Merr. on total cholesterol levels in male mice (Mus musculus). Before carrying out test, phytochemical tests were carried content secondary metabolites stems. Furthermore, test vivo using mice, induced by high-fat diet (PTL) form beef brain, quail egg yolk and propylthiouracil increase until...

The present study was designed to determine the effect on laying performance and egg quality resulting from total substitution of soybean meal (SBM) with low-fiber sunflower meal (SFM; Helianthus annus L.) meal in diet of hens. ISA Brown layers, 28 wk of age, were randomly allocated to 2 dietary treatments and fed for 10 wk. The hens were kept in a free-range environment and fed 2 wheat middlin...

The present study was conducted to investigate the variation in the lipid profile between Egyptian breed Fayoumi and commercial strain ISA-Brown. Forty 32-wk-old ISA-Brown and thirty-five 36-wk-old Fayoumi were housed individually in separated layer cages in opensystem housing. Four weeks later, Body weight was recorded and egg weight, number, and composition were measured. In addition, lipid p...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of egg yolk and cooling on ram coated spermatozoa. semen was collected from three ram by artificial vagina contacted with a tube containing tris- fructose-egg yolk 15%. samples were pooled, centrifuged by 700 g for 10 min and removed supernatant. then, samples were diluted by tris-glucose and centrifuged again to remove seminal plasma and egg yolk...

Background: The present study was designed to evaluate Ciprofloxacin residue and their impact on some biomolecules (albumin, total protein and cholesterol) in eggs of laying hens after oral administration. For that purpose, One group (A) of laying hens (n = 20) were orally administered 10 mg⁄kg ciprofloxacin for five consecutive days. The second group (n = 10) was untreated controls. Eggs were ...

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of pomegranate by- product (PBP) on performance, egg quality and blood parameters in laying hens. A total of 144 Bobze layer hens from 44 to 56 weeks during 12 weeks were randomly assigned into 4 treatments including 0 (control, corn and soy bean meal), 4, 8 and 12% of PBP, with 4 replicates and 9 layers in each. Res...

BACKGROUND Hen's egg allergy is a frequent cause of childhood food allergy. Egg yolk is used in various commonly consumed foods; if children with allergy to hen's egg could eat heated egg yolk, their quality of life (QOL) would improve. No reports exist regarding oral food challenges (OFCs) for heated egg yolk. We aimed to clarify whether pediatric patients allergic to hen's egg could consume h...

Despite being considered a good or excellent source of 11 nutrients (1), egg intake accounted for only 1.3% of the total energy consumed by the average American in 2000 (2). The perception of cholesterol-rich eggs as a “forbidden food” developed in response to the highly publicized 1970s recommendation by the American Heart Association (AHA) to restrict egg consumption and limit dietary cholest...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of feeding high concentrations of corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) on chemical composition and selected nutrient content of egg yolk. Four isocaloric diets were formulated to contain 0, 17, 35, or 50% corn DDGS. A total of two hundred forty 54-wk-old Single-Comb White Leghorn laying hens were randomly allotted to 2 birds ...

________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract This study was performed to investigate the effects of different oils in the diets of laying quail on their performance, egg quality, serum lipids and fatty acid composition of egg yolk. One hundred and ninety two 12-wk old Japanese quail were allocated to eight groups with two replicates containing 12 qua...
